You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

It has squandered its time and attention on ridiculous fiscal rules, persecuting refugees and trashing ecosystems in the name of growth, while failing to deliver what we so desperately want.

As I pointed out recently, Bates authored a paper for Rupert Lowe MP that used an estimate of illegal migration that he knew to be false and had been publicly retracted by its original authors.
Who’s behind the Centre for Migration Control? This so-called “research organisation” has been cited in The Sun, The Telegraph, The Times and Express - but it appears to be run by one man with a Brexit campaign past, publishing opaque and selective data and wild claims about migrants.

Is it wrong for MPs to be landlords?
Britain's homelessness minister, Rushanara Ali, has come under fire for hiking the rent, despite previously speaking out about 'private renters being exploited'.
